Taking Rambo Rugs 101 And Beyond

By Jaclyn Hurley


If you really want to research Rambo rugs, expect to spend quite a lot of time in front of your computer. These industry-changing turnouts and other types of horse blankets have so many features and options that it's like going back to school. However, you can also rely on the expertise of Horseware of Ireland and the testimonies of thousands of satisfied customers, limiting your efforts to choosing the right size and color.

It'll take time to become familiar with the full line of stable and field wear offered by Horseware of Ireland. There's a lot to read and understand about the innovative cut and fit, the kind of fasteners used, the materials that make the blankets warm but not bulky, and the various accessories that come with them.

A product description for the Wug includes facts about nylon for outer durability, thermobonded fiberfill for more warmth with less weight, antibacterial and anti-static polyester inner lining, patented V-front closure, high-cut neck to relieve wither pressure, tail flap for added protection and tail cord for more security, and reflective strips for safety. Oh, yeah, leg arches for added freedom of movement, and the Wug isn't designed to be used with liners.

These are standard features for the Wug and other turnouts. They come in light, medium, and heavy weights. You'll find a complete assortment of blankets, sheets, and coolers for every purpose in the Horseware line, as well as a wide choice of color and size.

Maybe you want a snug fit for a foal, in which case you'll be glad to know that the ones from Horsecare 'grow' with the baby; there's an ingenious way to adjust the many Velcro fasteners to get just the right size to keep an energetic young animal warm and untangled. Of course, there's a wide color choice, so you and your precious foal can look handsome.

You can rely on the design and durability of Rambos. After all, Tom and Carol McGuiness were the very first to achieve a truly warm, waterproof, breathing, well-fitting turnout - and thereby changed the industry forever. It used to be a real struggle to keep horses warm and dry at the same time. Waterproof coverings could become sweat baths, while warm woolens became soaked when it rained. Layers of cotton liner, wool blanket, and waterproof sheet were hard to keep in place.

If you want validation for the expertise of Horseware of Ireland, look for customer reviews. Horse owners love to tell others about their experiences, and there are thousands of owners out there very happy with their Rambos. Reviews say that turnouts have lasted eight years or more, with regular cleaning and re-proofing and occasional repairs with patches, needle, and thread.

You can take the time to really understand the options beforehand, using videos on fitting a blanket and customer reviews to help. You'll find that the folks at Horseware really know their stuff and truly want to give you and your horse what many consider to be the best gear in the industry.
